Moved to mainspace by Raymie (talk). Self-nominated at 04:27, 15 June 2020 (UTC).
New enough, long enough, neutrally written, well referenced, no close paraphrasing seen. The copied text has been 5x expanded in this article, satisfying Rule A5. I'm afraid I don't find either of the hooks so hooky, and am unable to find hook facts from ALT1 about the name and the nine months in the article. QPQ done. Yoninah (talk) 18:14, 12 July 2020 (UTC)
- @Yoninah: Added a mention of the 9 months, but it does get to be kinda mathy and a bit of a dashed line (the call letter change came in the middle of the sale and there's no other thing they could possibly stand for). I do have a potential ALT2 candidate? Raymie (t • c) 22:28, 12 July 2020 (UTC)
